Until I read the last post on the Winter is Coming I was about to write up a short piece called ‘Game on !’ as every other press cutting, cast hint, and piece of behind the scenes evidence is pointing towards the Game of thrones series going into production soon after March.

However unknown one source (Michael) is claiming that  he had sources saying some people in HBO didn’t like the initial cut of the Pilot, has sent worries round the community. There has been some back tracking saying that it was only first cut and itwas more a muted response than a dislike. Also no one else with any sources has picked up a hint of this speculation.

I still think were safe to assume unless we get more substantive source or evidence its incredibly likely that game of Thrones will be green lit sometime towards the start of march.

Reasons for think so have been

• Positive comments from Harry Lloyd
• Mysterious comments from Esme (Would we have her any other way?)
• The booking of the paint hall by HBO
• Belfast agency prepping up for fantasy extras
• Named and reliable Michael Lombardo quotes about dallies looking fantastic

Nah im still confident it will be Game on !
